Hi,
I was able to come up with a creative fix to "This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your systems administrator." with the help of Mister Mxyzptlk
Superman's antagonist, below.
Just kidding, as I mentioned before, my atty sent me a copy of the affected file in .docx format.Opened on my Laptop, it worked, opened the .doc on my laptop, it worked.
Problem Solved. At least for now.
Regards,
